Opening date announced for the Grantley Arms

Grantley Hall in North Yorkshire is set to open the doors to its much-anticipated country pub, Grantley Arms, this August.

Situated just a two-minute drive or a picturesque country walk from the hotel in the neighbouring Grantley Village, the pub invites guests to savour the very best of Yorkshire’s local flavours in a relaxed yet refined setting.

Grantley Arms Interior

At the helm of the kitchen is Chef Patron Gavin Swift, formerly Senior Sous Chef at Grantley Hall.

Gavin Swift said “It’s a real honour to be appointed Chef Patron at the Grantley Arms.

I’ve been part of the Grantley Hall team for several years now, and I’m proud to bring everything we stand for – exceptional quality, local ingredients, and true Yorkshire hospitality – into a relaxed, countryside setting.”

Grantley Arms Chef Gavin Swift

With over 20 years of culinary experience, Gavin has a passion for local Yorkshire produce and Mediterranean flavours, inspired by his childhood travels.

Grantley Arms’ menu will celebrate seasonal ingredients and contemporary twists on pub classics.

Grantley Arms Fish and Chips

Expect burrata with grilled peach, cucumber & mint, Yorkshire coast fish & chips and braised beef & ale pie with mash.

Grilled dishes will include Nidderdale lamb chops and honey rose harissa chicken with tzatziki – delicious.

Grantley Arms Sunday Lunch

Gavin added, “I actually became a chef by accident, but my very first job was in a pub. So, it feels quite special to be returning to my roots, leading a pub we hope will become a true culinary destination.”

Whether you’re staying in the luxurious Grantley Hall, a local or just passing through on a sunny walk, the Grantley Arms is set to become a standout culinary destination for delicious, seasonal dishes.

The pub opens on Thursday, 14th August and will be open Wednesdays – Sundays.
